General Grey, who was the second of Mr. Lambton yesterday, was :also on the ground. Mr. Lambton proceeded to Howick. Mr. Beauniont 'has just come into town, and was received' with great. enthusiasm. He went to the house of his principal agent, where a great crowd col lected, and remained for some minutes.

The particulars of this action will be communicated in the military despatches, and we shall take an early opportunity of submitting our sentiments' upon the ulterior policy which it may, in consequence, be expedient to pursue.

The signature of a treaty of peace, by the British and Birnian Commissioners, on the 3,i instant, and the pledge, on the part of the latter, that theeatne would be ratified by the King of Avis within fifteen ciayrkof that date, and some specific articles, as therein stated, carried into effect within the saute period, has already been brought to the knowledge of the Right lion. the Governor-Gene . - ral in Corincil by the proceedings of the British Commissioner', recorded in their despatchem tinder date the 3d instant.
